More coin collectors are buying up Louisa Adams First Spouse coins in particular. New sales for the uncirculated coin increased by 187 and the proof option saw a rise of 209. The numbers are nothing to shout home about, but are actually solid when it comes to the series. As a comparison, the same coins totals in the prior report were 55 and 45, respectively.
Why the increased interest in Louisa Adams? The Adams’ will be taken off US Mint store shelves in three weeks when gold coins honoring Letitia Tyler go on sale June 4.
As a reminder, when this week’s sales are reported next week, the First Spouse Coin price increases are likely to play into the picture. Prices on Wednesday went up $25 for each gold coin option.
